Motion Detect Notes:
l
If a moving object that requires detection occupies a large percentage of the photo scene,
the motion detect tends to be more reliable. Zooming in or moving the camera closer to
the moving objects helps improve performance.
l
Objects moving slowly within the photo scene require a higher sensitivity setting compared
to fast moving objects.
l
Sudden changing light levels can falsely trigger motion detect. Sources of false triggers
include rapidly changing light levels at sunrise or sunset or during the movement of clouds.
l
Good lighting of the photo scene produces the best results.
l
The motion detect feature uses the full 4:3 ratio frame to capture motion. Still photos in the
320 x 176, 640 x 352, and 1280 x 720 formats and video in the 720p format will crop a
portion of the top and bottom of the photo or video.
l
Motion detect is paused when video is being recorded.
l
The delay from motion occurring to photo capture is typically 1 second (10 seconds for a
5MP photo).
l
Motion detect is disabled when the light level is too low, or when the IR LEDs are active.
